New guy from Southern Maryland

Redhorizons · 01-21-2015, 09:21 PM

Hi All,

I'm new to the forum, I recently purchased a new 2013 370z Silver base 6mt sport package. The car was new, even thought it was a 13. It had been sitting on the dealers lot since December of 2013. The dealer explained that car had been marked sold in their database and went unnoticed for awhile. There were good and bad aspects of this deal...obviously I was able to get the car a few thousand lower than what the 14's and 15s are going for. The bad part, because of the in-service date being Dec 2013 I only have 2 years left on the warranty. I was able to negotiate an extended warranty to make up for the missing year.

This is not my First Z. I had 2003 350z Track edition back in the day. Loved that car. For some reason I felt the need to get a more practical car, 2005 LGT, but now that I'm going through a divorce I fell the need for something less practical. In the last few years I have been a Subaru guy WRX and LGT fan. Something however drew me back to the Z. Anyways, I'm glad I'm back in a Z and I have included pics of my last Z and Subies.

Congrats. Great find!

I'm pretty sure the warranty starts from the date of sale, not manufacturing. I could be wrong on this though.

The warranty should start when the car is put into service (as in SOLD).

Nice find BTW and welcome to the best forum on the interweb...

I wish it started from the sale date, but the dealer explained it started from the in service date, which is the date they took delivery of it.

My brother just bought his first car, a 2005 LGT. Very nice ride!

Enjoy the forum.
